2020 T1 (Participants and PLB links)

[Martin]

Format: Name, location, PLB page link. Fresh line for each team member please. We'll respond with a team name. Deadline is June 2020. Please include PLB page link (no TBD or TBAs please).

Please note that all of your team members must also be a member of the Tour of Idaho Facebook group before your team will be assigned a name and be put on the calendar. It's easier for me if you do all of this before posting your PLB links and dates below. Thanks.

[Martin]

Team Hillbilly. Tell Kent it could be Team Pink Ale-8!

[cdalejef]

Noooooo!!!!!!! Lol

[KentuckyWR]

WTH! Both of you know I don't drink any soft drinks . . . I will have to admit though, I did taste one of the Orange Ale-8's and they weren't too bad. We just moved into a new office building and the vending machines are fully stocked with the fizzy beverage made in Winchester, Kentucky!

August 20th is the confirmed start date for Team Hillbilly!

Hahaha! Steve said today, and I quote "if you keep poking the bear, Martin is going to name us Team White Claw". Love it, I think it's a step up from Glow Stick... BTW, Steve secretly loves White Claw. ;-) Seriously, we're looking forward to another attempt. Thanks for all you do to make this circus happen Martin, it's a cool thing.

[Martin]

Welcome back Marc. Team Badges it is. Hopefully we'll have everything knocked out by then. That's maybe a bit early for a soloist but it ought to be just fine.

[Chadzu]

Chad Hunter, Utah, 8/15/2020 ish, http://share.findmespot.com/shared/f...cPiGGSX4sZlNL4

[Martin]

Oh my goodness. Again? Some people never get right. Will you be riding a bike made in this century this time? You want me to name your team or, as a veteran, do you want to name your own?

[Chadzu]

Oh heck! I may try something Chinese this time.
Naming your own team is bad juju, plus I'm solo unless someone wants to step up.

[Martin]

You are Team Kudzu.
